A Driving Game Controlled with Your Pee

Alex

How should Frankfurt Taxi Service advertise their service to those who've had a few drinks and shouldn't drive home?

Saatchi & Saatchi in German came up with this ad:

The Piss-Screen - a pressure-sensitive inlay set within urinals, enabling users to play while they pee. We installed this newfangled creation in male restrooms across Frankfurt, teaming up with a variety of bars, clubs and cafés. The game itself was displayed on a screen above each urinal, and would automatically start as soon as someone began to pee. The player could then control the car whilst relieving himself – if they wanted the car to go right, they simply peed to the right (and visa versa).

The overall design of the driving game was similar in style to that of Need for Speed, requiring relatively quick reactions. Obviously the more drunk you are, the slower your response, reinforcing the effects of alcohol to the gamer. The game ultimately culminates in a shocking crash-sequence, leaving the viewer with little doubt as to the repercussions of driving while drunk.

The Message
“Too pissed to drive?”
“Take a Taxi instead”

"Or do singing flash mobs happen every day at the mall?" No, they just happen every day on the Internet. They used to be novel, now they're just annoying, like that guy who keeps repeating the same joke long after it ceased being funny.

The average flash mob you see online has gotten boring, but if you saw one in real life you wouldn't be able to appreciate it at all? I'd say there's a large difference.

Not to mention this isn't an average flash mob, there is the twist that it's a guy proposing.

They're obnoxious and get in the way. I don't care what their reason is, I'm trying to shop, I shouldn't have to detour around people dancing in the middle of the walk way.

If I was in a shopping mall, I'd be much too busy trying to leave than to watch someone guy I and the people he hired to stage a performance.

Scratch that, I MIGHT watch just to see her say no!

The "twist" that it's a guy proposing makes it even more obnoxious. Most people propose in private. You have to be desperate for attention to turn it into a public spectacle and expect everyone to stop and watch. If I'm at the mall, I'm there to shop, not dodge a mob of attention-seeking performers.

100 people singing a proposal at the mall? If only they worked as hard on the marriage as they do on the proposals, maybe we wouldn't have so many divorces.

Slab lol, I'm sure that's what a lot of people probably thought. Just some people singing for money... which I guess they are since I'm sure the dude paid them :P
